Stomach trouble would more quickly j disappear if the idea of treating the cause rather than the effect, would comr into practice. A tiny inside hid-! den nerve, said Dr. Shoop, governs and gives strength to the stomach. A branch aisu goes to the heart, and one of the kidneys. When these in side nerves fail, then the organs must falter Dr. Shoops Restorative is dir ected sneeiticallv to those failing ner ves.

It prevails in that far-away count ry—Africa—especially the Congo district. It is caused by the bite of the tsetse fly. When it bites a person, the sleeping symptoms begin and finally the sufferer sleeps until death occurs. Contrast this with the peaceful, I balmy sleep of health. Is there any thing more wearing than to lie awake at night, tossing about, nervous, with cold feet, hot head and mercy knows what else? Short of letting the tsetse fly bite us we would do almost any thing for relief. How can we pre vent It? Mr. George Hayes, of Union City, Pa., writes: “I had lost my appetite, was all run-down, could not sleep nights. I had tried every thing without relief. Vlnol was rec ommended, and to my surprise, it helped me at once; gave me a splendid appetite, and now I sleep soundly.” What Vlnol did for Mr. Hayes, it will do for every run-down, nervous and overworked person who cannot sleep. A. G. WANNER, Falls City. Neb. ’O REPUBLICANS A Few Timely Suggestions by One Interested T.'s time to bestir ourselves if we j expect to accomplish the end for which our candidates were nomi nated. This is a crisis in our nation, as our friend the lion- Hoke Smith told us, and if we do not wake up to the issues of the day and the level headed conservative men of our country will not put their shoulder to the wheel, “the peo ple will rule."’ And it will be the class of people too who are car ried away by just such oratory and catchy, slushy doctrine as Was advanced by Mr. Smith. We heard him from an unprejudiced standpoint and must admit that lie is an orator,a forcible speaker, and an earnest politician and we think that whatever Mr. Bryan may say in behalf of himself a*nd his own cause, will sound very tame in comparison. Mr. Smith is a large powerful built man with a heavy voice and a good llow of language but actually de void of the chivalry of grand old southerners, whom we have been privileged to listen to before. In speaking ol our president, he never once had the manliness to : call him President Roosevelt but invariably called him Mr. Roose velt or Roosevelt- While in the : old days of President Cleveland's administration our own speakers, though denouncing his policies. | never failed to give the proper title of president to the man rul ing a great nation like ours. Ik spoke of the legislation favoring the few- 'Twas the merest bosh for we knew that President Roose velt has done more for the common people and against the trusts and monopolies than any other man living. He said "how much Mr. Bryan had aged that he was wearing his life out for the peo ple.” If he has aged and is breaking down it has been done • in making iiis own fortune and in his own aggrandizement. He also | spoke ot the tariff for revenue i only which was tried to our sor row from 1 S'»2 to 189b, and of buying our farm implements abroad under free trade with noth ing to buy with. He spoke of the bread line in New York City caused by the panic. How mis leading! There always has been a bread line there, and always will. In a city of over 4,000,000 of people there are many who cannot work and many more who will not, who would starve or beg if it were not for charity of the city rulers who established this plan. In other large cities on the ] globe pedestrains and especially i visitors can scarcely walk a block j without being accosted by beg-1 gars and street waifs while you may walk for miles in New York City and see no more of such things than here. We who were priviledged to hear Mr. Scott, chairman of the Bureau of Agri- j culture know that he answered I the whole argument of free trade 1 when he said “That the differ ence in farm products in purchas- j ing power between then and now ( is this: The farmer then might j buy the binder. Now with the same number of bushels of grain he could buy the binder and a nice surry and have SbO left. And so like the closing remarks in a clear field what would we do in the l,rush,tariff tinkering, finance tinkering, etc. Be up and doing republicans, while it is day.

Com Pleased With the Panhandle Those who visited the Pan handle country during the past week with A. H- Rife, of the Rife Land Co., have returned and are more than pleased with the prospects there,finding splen did crops and conditions even better than they expected. Those who went from here were George Trefzner and John Schipe, who made their selection of land and expect to buy later, while John King and Mr. Hanika of Shubert went down to lease their land already purchased, which they had no trouble in do ing. Whitaker Bros, were so favorably impressed with the country that they have decided to co-operate with the Kife Land Co., and hereafter on the first and third Tuesdays of each month will furnish special low rates to those desiring to visit the Pan handle country.
